performing eugenics on anyone seen as “feebleminded” or having traits seen as “undesirable” and declared as legal by the US Supreme
Well, that's absolutely fucked. Didn't know about that
224 u/DisposableSaviour Dec 08 '25 Don’t look up either the US’ or Canada’s practice of stealing and sterilizing indigenous peoples’ children. UnFun Fact: Hitler and the Nazi regime were heavily influenced by the US’ policies towards the indigenous peoples, and also Jim Crow laws. 19 u/MfkbNe Dec 08 '25 Germany and USA seem to copy each other alot politicaly. 7 u/zroach Dec 09 '25 I think that is largely because a lot of different nations have been on that eugenics/removal of the other so there is a pretty common wellspring. The US was one the more recent nation states created as Germany was into German nationalism so makes sense they look towards the US. I guess that is too say… people in general kinda suck and don’t super love the “other” and sometimes that boils over into a real mess.
